New “Decisions” Email

One of the most frequently requested workflow features is an email notification that is sent when a decision is made.People find the  “All comments and replies” setting creates too much email, but “Hourly summary”may leave too long between a decision and the notification, especially on a time-critical project.Today we added a new setting of “Decisions”.  This sends an email notification only when a decision is made..

To choose the Decision notification on proofs:

Anyone can edit their email notification setting for an individual proof.

  1. Open the proof
  2. Go to the Tools menu.
  3. Select Email Notifications.
  4. Choose “Decisions

 

 .

To choose the Decision notification as your default setting:

Registered users can choose this setting as their default on all proofs that they are involved with.

  1. Open the dashboard
  2. Go to the Personal settings menu.
  3. Scroll down to the Proofing Defaults section.
  4. Click to Edit the “My default email notifications setting” field.
  5. Choose “Decisions“.
  6. Click Save.

NOTE: If you are an Administrator you can set this as an option for users in your organisation.

    How about only comments and replies with no decision notifications. When I select “all new comments and replies” I get everyone’s decision. I would like only comments and replies to the comments. Thanks

    Hi Lisa

    We will be removing decisions emails from All Comments & Replies and creating a new setting of All Activity.
